DLP is a system based on the four-pivot mechanism principle. One of the major and unique ideas that were applied in the complete DLP® suspension system was placing a DLP® link above and in front of the rear wheel axle. The link together with the position of the main pivot and the linkage geometry create a virtual pivot point path throughout the travel. This path is one of the basic parameters to achieve the required suspension properties (kinematics) of the rear triangle.
The DLP® system with the optimum position and shape of the linkage contributes to the overall suspension characteristics depending on the purpose of the individual model series (so-called Leverage Ratio / rear wheel suspension characteristics).
